They might look alot better than the base brakes, but def not better than the sport akebono brakes.

I agree with you about that. I just don't need to be buying new calipers if the base ones serve me well enough. I don't race and it's my dd . I'm happy enough!

I wouldn't want to cover my brakes and keep the heat inside. Also, I have many corvette customers who try those, and then wind up coming to me to coat their calipers because they look cheesy. I guess on a cheap import like a civic or a Z, they aren't ricey though.

Just looking for something more than white lettering on grey calipers. I really would have liked the 40th anniversary red calipers.

I think the red lettering on the stock calipers would really pop.

Love the way it came out. The letters are bigger then the Stock Decal which I think makes it stand out more. Anyhow I was able to put on the decals this weekend but not because I had time to take off my wheels for ***** and giggles, this is what i woke up to on Saturday Morning.

That's rite, she is sitting on planks of wood....

Mike · 10-31-2011, 09:00 AM

So you didn't actually take the wheels off, someone else was kind enough to do that for you?

That really sucks!

^ Yeah they did me the courtesy, and broke my Pillar, weather strip and scratched my window in the process. Those darn thief's...
